Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a political movement/party?

No, we are an unincorporated association furthering educational and cultural causes, primarily active on social media.

Do you plan to create a pan-European movement or party?

No. We don’t believe single-issue parties or movements stand much chance of achieving European unity. We have no electoral or political ambition of any kind. My Country? Europe. has always been – and will always be – about Europeans getting to know one another and bonding together through mutual cultural and political exchanges.

So what do you do, exactly?

In short, we provide information about Europe. Not only do we cover political news, but also a variety of cultural, artistic, economic, and historical aspects of Europe and European identity. We cover all forty-seven full members of the Council of Europe, plus the Republic of Belarus, Kosovo*, and the Holy See.

Do you receive funds from the EU/Soros/the aliens?

  No. The project is entirely financed through profits from our e-store and private donations.

Who’s behind the project?

My Country? Europe. was founded in March 2014 by five young European students in the wake of the Crimean crisis. The current staff is entirely comprised of volunteers and counts people from over fifteen different European countries.

Are you left wing/right wing?

No to both. We do not have a vertically mandated editorial line: the founders, volunteers, and contributors come from all corners of the political spectrum and their opinions are their own. We believe no individual party or ideology is strong enough to build a united Europe: that endeavour needs everyone. Political plurality is one of the underpinning reasons behind European prosperity, and that is reflected in our editorial project.

Do you support/oppose cause X?

See above.
